Default CL Video?

Are there any videos of CL flying that are in this section? I fly rc and was curious about the CL world.

Bob Hunt at Robin's View Production also has some very nice tapes. Also see these web sites:

www.brodak.com has a nice intro to the different kinds of CL flying.

http://home.att.net/~philbrown36641s5/clhomepage.html Phil's got a link to just about everything control line on the web.

www.clstunt.com is pretty interesting. Check out the Stuka Stunt Forum as well.

Give it a try!

Go to the AeroManiacs website at http://www.aeromaniacs.com and check out some of the video clips available there. That will give you a taste of what C/L is about. The 4 up racing clip is great.

MICHAEL,

Try to find some tapes of the Brodak Event. They cover various aspects of CL such as Precision Aerobatics, Combat, Carrier, Clown Racing, Junkyard Wars, etc.

Another interesting tape would be any of the Vintage Stunt Championships where stunt planes are divided into before 1953 and between 1953 and 1969.

The BEST alternative IMHO is to look up a local CL group and see it in person...they may have a club trainer and let you give it a whirl (pun intended).

You may want to contact Bob Reeves of the Tulsa Glue Dobbers. He has a video available with a cam mounted on a stunt plane doing the full pattern. It has both forward and a backward views. Quite interesting to see what the fuel does and the amount of movements in the flaps and the elevator during flights. http://www.tulsacl.com/ or
